$800 Custom Gaming Rig

[Jeamy7]

I'm looking for a computer around the $800 price point. I don't have any preferences, but I want a strong CPU and GPU and can be upgraded! Thank you!

a little overbudget but if you can get it, its extremely powerful with a gtx 970 and i5 which will game at 1080p perfectly and even 1440p. this supports an overclocking cpu (z97 mobo) . you can even throw in another 970 in the future for even more performance.
